[Design and Technology] TEAV Professional Development Courses inTerm 4

[Claire O'Boyle]

        Hi to Design & Technology Teachers:

        Please note  amendment to description for Skate deck workshop : Skaties wouldn't be interested in a deck made of fibreglass!
        Arthur's skatedecks are constructed from Rock-Maple wood.  Arthur's is an introductory workshop demonstrating the construction of the mould
        and working with the press. He'll be giving out activity packs with instructions to accompany the day also.  

        cheers

        PD No. 6470
        SATURDAY October 29  Mt Waverley  (Arthur Bersee)                                        $154 (members) / $165

        This workshop follows on from Arthur Bersee's ''all hands on deck'' session at the 2005 conference. As Arthur says: "I think it is important to stress from the outset that for the people we want to engage through our tech stuff, skating is very serious stuff." The Skate Deck projects have empowered students throughout Arthurs school. Arthur has refined a mould and a manufacturing method which enables his students to construct their own skatedecks. His exhibition last year had students- made decks decorated by famous Australian artists. The session will begin with a brief introduction to the subtle complexities of skate decks. Arthur will then press a deck, after taking a previously pressed deck out of the press. Participants can then see how the blank is cut on the bandsaw and prepared for decorating.  Each participant will be taken through the process of making a mould and how to use it to press a deck. There will also be an introduction to a variety  of methods of decorating the decks.Participants will receive a list of suppliers and detailed and illustrated instructions.
